sự bất động
/ˌɪməˈbɪləti//ˌɪməˈbɪləti/The word "immobility" comes from the Latin words "in" meaning "not" and "mobilis" meaning "mobile" or " movable". In Latin, the word "immobilis" meant "not movable" or "fixed". This Latin term was later borrowed into Middle English as "immobility", which has retained its original meaning of a lack of movement or inability to move. In medical contexts, "immobility" often refers to a lack of movement or physical activity, particularly in a specific part of the body or as a result of an injury or illness. In a broader sense, "immobility" can also describe a lack of progress, development, or change. Throughout its history, the word has been used in various fields, including medicine, psychology, and philosophy, to describe different forms of stagnation or inactivity.
